Ofsted
School remains Good Inspected 12 June 2024
Strengths
- “This small school has a big heart, seamlessly integrated into a larger community with a shared vision for every child to flourish academically, spiritually and culturally.”
- “The values of ‘courage, perseverance, respect and compassion’ thread through every aspect of the school’s work.”
- “Pupils understand and embody these values, supporting each other to meet them.”
To improve
- “However, the support for some other pupils with additional needs, including some with SEND, lacks clarity.”
- “As a result, teaching staff sometimes do not have sufficient information on how to best help these pupils.”
- “Governors have correctly identified this as an area needing further improvement.”
